day 1 Jennifer Rizzo holiday housewalk button

Are you ready?

Jennifer Rizzo holiday housewalk over 30 homes!!!Welcome to my home! I am so glad you are here!

Jennifer Rizzo's holiday home tour with her vintage modern style

Come into my dining area first!

Jennifer Rizzo dining room

I love using natural items when I decorate! Lots of greenery!

Jennifer rizzo holiday dining areaI made the tablecloth from a plain one from Homegoods. It was super-easy with some sequin fabric.

Jennifer rizzo faux fireplaceI put my hand painted pillow on a comfy chair. This is normally where I have my morning coffee, so a comfy chair is a good way to start the day.

Jennifer Rizzo dear head with boxwood wreath and handmade bannerI added a boxwood wreath to a fun stag head I found.

Jennifer rizzo mantelI found these other deer heads earlier in the year and I love them! I am going to try to use them all year.

Dear head vases on mantelI hung some little ornaments from branches in my yard. They are “shatter-proof”. I love how they re-label plastic as shatter-proof. Brilliant marketing.

Jennifer Rizzo yarn faux fireI had a little fun with some yarn and glue for my fireplace insert.

Yarn fireplace insertI’ll show you how to make this next week!

chandelier with ornamentsYou might recognize this chandy. It’s from the Oak house. IS that bad?I loved it so much, I swapped it out with another one. 🙂

Wood bowl, greens and brich candlesI just used some things on hand for a center piece. I love the greens and the sparkly ornaments.The  wood bowl was a Homegoods find.

Natural and sparly centerpeiceAnd I am really into silver jingle bells this year. They add a nice little touch of silver. Hob lobs had tubes of them for about $3.

Make a cute place card with the plate itself! Use a paint pen on the glass to make an arrow on the underside and use a circular piece of paper between the plates with name son them, Turn it to the person who is sitting there!I used a glass plate to make a place setting and place card all at once!

Boxwood wreath and upholstery ribbon ribbonI love a bit of on-hand upholstery ribbon for easy decor! I love boxwood at the holidays, I was so happy to find them!

Jennifer Rizzo homeLet’s go into the living room!

Jennifer Rizzo treeWe decorate our tree with vintage Shiny-brite ornaments that were my aunties and gram’s. and handmade ornaments from the kids.

The kids were excited to help decorate this year for the housewalk too!

Jennifer Rizzo livingroomThe kids loved getting out the snow houses.

Jennifer rizzo snow houses

I bet ya You didn’t know that hand-made clay ninja turtles lived in snow houses did ya? See you learned something new today.

Jennifer Rizzo living room viewHere’s the view back from the living room to dining area. I hung a bit of greenery and “shatterproof” ornaments to brighten up the pass-through.

Let’s head into the kitchen!

Jennifer Rizzo kitchenI love red in the kitchen for the holidays! The nice thing about a white palette is it’s like a blank canvas and makes colors pop.

Jennifer rizzo christmas kitchenI found the oranges and pomegranates and thought they were lovely.

pipe cleaner starsThe kids and I sat down and watched Elf and made pipe cleaner stars.

“Hi my name is Buddy,what’s your favorite color?”

Is it bad I made them answer the phone like that all day Tuesday?

pipe cleaner stars on hutchI love a touch of blue and green with the ornaments.

ornaments in cookie jar

I dressed up the kitchen sink area a little bit.I kept it  a little simpler this year.

Jennife rizzo's kitchen sink areaThe kids and I also made jingle bell garlands with red and white butchers twine.

jingle bell garlandI gave my vintage Santa mugs a new hair-do. It was a great use of the extra boxwood trimmings.

Vintage Santa mugs with BoxwoodI have 3 and I am looking to add a few more.

vintage santa mugs wth box wood "hair"I like how they wink at me kinda like “Hey baby…I got some boxwood for ya….”

    So glad I stopped by and I felt like you spoke as if we were actually in your home. Lovely.

    December 2, 2013 at 1:53 pm

    I found myself giggling out loud during your tour. My son just saw Elf for the first time this weekend, and it’s been quote city around here. I love all the vintage touches in your home, but those Santas are saucy. And I’m planning to check my snow houses for TMNT. I’m thinking the Lego mini figures may have taken up residence in ours

  32. Trish @TheOldPostRoad says

    December 2, 2013 at 2:06 pm

    Beautiful, Jennifer! I think I am going to have to copy the yarn idea on the fireplace. Love it!

  48. Veronica Roth says

    December 3, 2013 at 8:01 am

    Very pretty Jennifer. I’m not much for the traditional Christmas decoration because I’m always changing things around. Plus, as an artist, I get bored with my visual landscape and have to switch it. Right now my city house is full of vintage, antiques and whimsical finds plus a good dose of nature and fairy lights. And, in 10 days I’m leaving for my country home, in England, where I get to do this all over again plus the tree. 🙂 Off to visit some of the other bloggers. Jeanne’s home looks like just my style. 🙂

  49. Chelsea says

    December 3, 2013 at 8:53 am

    What a beautifully decorated home! I am brand new to your site, Jennifer, and am so happy I found you! I think what I love the most about your holiday decor is how you incorporated your kids. The decor isn’t too serious or formal – it’s fun, unique and whimsical! I am sure your kids just loved helping you with a few of the bits and pieces. Well done and enjoy!

    Your home looks lovely, Jen! I love all the greenery you’ve added in. Love your kitchen with its touches of red. I love adding red in this time of year, too. I’m glad we kept the walls neutral in color so it makes it easy to do that. Looking forward to seeing the rest of the tour!

    I’m a little disappointed at how difficult it was to go from house to house because some participates linked to their blog and not to the tour post and didn’t use the home tour stop button for the next house.
